🎨 How to color it

Color the mermaid’s tail seafoam green, her long flowing hair coral pink, the giant clamshell soft lavender, and the starfish sunny yellow. Use chunky crayons or markers for the big tail, shell, and hair sections, and don’t worry if little hands color past the tiny bubbles. Try making each row of tail scales alternate between two greens so her curled tail looks extra shimmery.

The story behind this coloring page

Why Shells Hold Whispers — Under Shell Meadow, Pippa followed a tickle of sound. Plip, plip, hush. Read the full story →

Under Shell Meadow, Pippa followed a tickle of sound. Plip, plip, hush. She wanted to catch the quietest noise in the sea, but the bubbles kept popping and the little fish kept flicking their tails.

At last, Pippa climbed into Grand Clam, where no one ever peeked because it only opened at moon-nap time. Inside, under the soft purple lid, she found a tiny silver echo curled like a baby snail. “You were hiding here!” she whispered. The echo snuggled into every shell nearby. Ever since then, seashells hold whispers, and if you look at Pippa’s clamshell, can you guess where the first hush is hiding?
